The only published data was here:

I cannot make general perfts, because none of my engines implements complete under-promotions. Fairy-Max only considers promotion to the best piece. (Q or W in Spartan.) Spartacus only considers Q or N for the Persians, and W, G or K for the Spartans. For Gothic Chess (once it gets to play it) it would only consider Q, C or A.
But opening perfts, where promotions are still beyond the horizon,should be OK.

Re: Spartan chess perft?
These are the perft results from the opening position from Sjaak. It's fairly easy to make it output perfts for any position, so if you want more, just let me know.
